Thank you Autumn. Everywhere you go in this part of England is breathtaking. Now, if it would only stop raining......

This scene looks so much more verdant/vibrant and alive than it did during the day before Richard. Perhaps that's a combination of the positive effect of the rain on the foliage and grasses that day and the absence of a haze veil.
I won't be posting any of the panoramas that I took from here, they just aren't up to it. Besides, I think your shot says all there is to say about this view
ps Can you believe that I dropped a lense and a flash gun onto those rocks in the foreground? I almost died. Thankfully they're OK.

Thanks, Steve. I have to say that I did have to use an adjustment curves level and mask to bring out the sky, followed by some spot color dodging to brighten areas of the landscape. Also added some saturation, contrast and exposure compensation. But other than that, it looks just like it did when I was standing there.

And I thought only Yorkshiremen could do sarcasm properly. Are you sure that you weren't born within the county?
